WASHINGTON, May 17.-The inter-
state commission will hear the numer-
Gus complaints against the railroads, the
most important of which is that OF a
company engaged in the manufacture of
an improved stock ear, which has filed

charge will come up this week. 1t is
exp cted that the petition of the Omaha

ton flom Wisconsin when it comes up
for consideration. 1t is said that the
earnings OF the railroads were over
$1,000, GU0 above the April average dur
ing last month. and that this is largely
due to the Interstate law. Western rail
way officials are said to be i'll trouble

The Milwaukee d. st. Paul road has

north OF Woonsocket in regard to wheat

additional conditions:
The product of wheat must be forwarded
from the milling point within ninety days
from the date the grain is delivered at the
mill, or the right To forward free on transit

JOHN SHERMAN.
His Views on Trade Reciprocity
With Canada.

TORONTO, Ont, May 1.-THE follow
ing extract from letter to Eustis
Wiman from Senator Sherman on full
reciprocity between Canada and the
United States will appear in the Cana
dian papers tomorrow:
No question of greater Importance in for
eign relations is now presented than this. 1t
certainly is the object and desire to remove
all existing controversies and encourage
business and commercial intercourse be-
tween the people of both countries. AS to
the particular measure proposed by Butter
worth, or, indeed. as to the extent TO which
the reciprocity should go and articles should
be admitted free of duty in the respective
countries, | do not feel justified in express
ing an opinion, for these must be the subject
Of negotiations between and legislation by
the two countries. | can only say the gen
eral object sought seems to be one Of the
highest importance creditable alike to both
countries, and which will receive my careful
and friendly consideration during the com
ing summer. 1t would be discreditable in the
highest degree for two countries having so
MANY interests in common and natural ties
of friendship and amity TO have any irritation
or controversy about their trade ana inter
course with each other. Truly yours,
JOHN SHERMAN.

The Police Commissions Way of
Protecting Parks.

At the meeting of the police commits
sion yesterday it was decided to send
the following answer to the request of
the park commission for a detail of
twelve patrolmen:
The police commission will furnish the
force and properly police the city parks and
parkwayS, giving to the men such special in
structions as the park board may desire, but
declines to place the force or any part of it
under the charge or command of any one but
the superintendent of police.
This adriotly-worded resolution will
probably lead the park commission to
appoint its own force, as the law directs
that il shall ''create, control and pay its
police" The board next turned its at
tention to the examination of applicants,
and during the afternoon the following
men were inspected:
William Dunn, P. J. Qualley, John Court
ney. John Harmon, James f. Sullivan, Gus
tay \. SeitZ Patrick A. SeitZ. John T. Coolin,
Edward McNulty. Thomas Kelly, Jacob
YOSt, Miller Mccormick, John Byrnes, John
McKenna, b. W. Bacon, Bernard Monso,
Patrick Fox.
The mayor announced himself as OBJ
posed to any further appointments as
needless under the present system of
management, but the remainder of the
board. including Commissioner Hoy,
evinced a determination to appoint.
Nothing was done, by the way. of filling
the positions of sergeantS and lieuten-
ants, now vacant. The board meets

The German Coach1nan.

Charles Fisher is a young German,
born in Hanover, Germany. He came
to this country several years ago and
first located in Pennsylvania; began
work in the mines. He, however, did
not remain there but short time owing
to his health not being strong enough to
stand the dampneSS and dust of the coal
mining business. His next move was to
Chicago, where he was employed as
private coachman. He only remained
in Chicago about one year, when he
made up his mind he would see more of
the United States, so he started for New
Orleans, from thence he journeyed to
Minneapolis. 1t must not be imagined
that from his rowing around he became

such is not the case. In every place he
stopped he managed to find EN-

Mr.. Fisher has not been without his
troubles and trials to which all the
human family is more or less subject to,

own words, ''caused me no alarm. l
